Yesterday Ann Cohen came over to do a very magical concert of Songs and poems. Some of the poems were by her late husband, Allen... a major alternative cultural figure of the sixties [the force behind the San Francisco underground paper THE ORACLE and the organizer of THE BE- IN [trying to bring the San Francisco hippies and the Berkeley political activists together].
Ann is a force herself... playing her hand-made harp as we talked, making up Songs jamming with what we were saying.
We were kids in Ann's school for tots.
When we were talking about Louise Scott [who opened everything up for me forty years ago], Louise called right then. Magic.
